A.F.F.S. members Capt. Mike Corblies, Skip Storch and Chip Jablonski will be at the SIMUL-CAST POND at the 2008 GARDEN STATE SPORTSMEN SHOW, Edison N.J.
I'm not able to keep up with a daily blog.. I just have too much stuff to do.. Like fishing, filming, editing, doing a little gardening and oh yeah, going to work now and then.. But I do have some thoughts and observations on some days that I would like to pass on to our website visitors, students and AFFS members that may or may not fit into a particular section of this website.. So this spot is where you will find them from now on..
7/10/08... I had a phone call yesterday from Jack and Georgi Kerr the promoters of the Garden State Sportsmen's Show to confirm our attendance at their 2009 event.. Of course the answer was YES as it has been for the many years we have been exhibiting and performing at this great annual event.. The show will be held next year on January 8 -11 at the New Jersey Convention Center in Edison and will feature our A.F.F.S. SIMUL-CAST SHOWS daily and our State Fly Casting Competition for kids age 10 to 17 on Saturday and Sunday.. I also spoke with our good friend and sponsor Eric Dodds today of WILDWATER FLY FISHING PRODUCTS and Eric let me know that he will be joining us at the Garden State Show with his full product display near our SIMUL-CAST POND.. WILD WATER plans to also exhibit at the big Sportsmen's Show in Harrisburg for the first time in 09 and will be at the ROCKLAND SPORTSMEN and SOMERSET FLY Shows as well.. On a personal note.. Congratulations to Eric and his wife on the birth of their 5th child this week.. Mother and son are doing just fine but we are not to sure about Papa yet...
7/7/08... I recieved a phone call today from AFFS member Skip Storch from the SHU-FLY FLY SHOP in Nanuet, New York.. Skip was quite excited and rightfuly so.. He wanted me to open an e-mail he had just sent me.. Our buddy Skip has been nominated for an ATHLETE OF THE YEAR category by ESPN.. This is an annual competition called the ESPYS AWARDS held by ESPN television that features several different categories of athletes from around the world.. For those of you that are not aware.. Skip Storch in addition to being an expert fly fisherman and a Pro AFFS instructor is also a world class long distance swimmer that has set some impressive records over the years including being the only known swimmer to make it from Florida TO Cuba.. ESPN just finished filming a background segment on him featuring some of his fly fishing guiding on Cape Cod, Mass... It will be aired on ESPN HD during the contests television special on Sunday July 20th at 9 pm EST.. The program host Justin Timberlake and sports celebrities like Lance Armstrong will announce the results of the competition.. You can help Skip become voted in as number 1 of the 4 finalists in his group by registering your vote on the ESPN website.. http://promo.espn.go.com/espn/specialsection/espys2008/ First register yourself to vote then scroll down the list of categories until you find the section for OUTDOOR ATHLETESClick on that Category and there is our own Skip Storch.. Pass on this link to all your fly fishing friends and any one else that enjoys sports... Congratulations Skip and good luck in the finals.. We look forward to watching the Show on ESPN HD
7/6/08... I recieved a nice phone call on the 4th of July from Capt. Chris Goldmark of Culebra Fly Fishing Adventures.. Chris just wanted to say hello and let me know that he would like to particpate at our booth at any events we have coming up in N.J. while he is back in the States for this Summer and early Fall.. If you are in the market for a nice day on the water, Back Bay flyrodding in beautiful Cape May.. Then give Chris a call @ 609- 827- 4536.. You might get to catch some Stripers, Blues or Weakfish and find out a few secrets to catching Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon from a world class Pro.. I know I'm looking forward to doing just that when Chris and I hit the water together for a day or two this Fall.. As we try and hook up with and film some of those mysterious Cape May, Speckled Sea Trout ( There NOT Weakfish ) that visit these waters during most Octobers.. YES you will be able to meet Chris at our booth at the annual FISHERMEN'S FLEA MARKET at the Convention Center in Cape May on Sunday October 19th before he heads back to Culebra in November.. Some guys just know how to live right.. Don't they....
